StLouisCruisers Posted November 16, 2021 #76 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I'm home! @Horizon chaser 1957happy belated birthday to your son! Good to hear you're having fun. @rafinmdhope they can figure out the pain problem. Soon! @Cruising-alongnice photos of your Split visit. The first thing I think of when I think about Split is how small a world this is. We were walking along the esplanade there and a group of young people walked towards us. One of them called out "Go Blue" to me. I had my Michigan top on and here we were in Split with Michigan fans! Always fun! @lindalerhave a safe trip and enjoy your upcoming cruise.🚢 In honor of the bear parties today I submit my only two bears who look like they're having a good time together. I won both of these at Busch Gardens Williamsburg at an Oktoberfest event there. Busch Garden sits right next door to the Anheuser-Busch brewery. The department heads were having a family fun event that Oktoberfest. I can't believe my throwing arm back then! Rings over the bottles champion here. DS is a Michigan grad and DD is an Ohio State grad so these two were my choice of rewards. Thanks for your photos too @bennybear! 26 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruising-along Posted November 16, 2021 #77 Share Posted November 16, 2021 A few photos from our 2019 visit to Split. It was our last cruise before Covid. That day we took a tour to the town of Omis and took a riverboat ride through the gorgeous canyons along the river. The photos really don't do it justice, I remember thinking I'd love to do that tour again! Omis Where we started the riverboat ride through the canyons Can you see the person ziplining? And of course the cats....so many I wished I could take home! 32 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StLouisCruisers Posted November 16, 2021 #80 Share Posted November 16, 2021 More great photos from Croatia Carolyn @Cruising-along! It's a beautiful country. Here's the infamous esplanade called the Riva where we crossed paths with a Michigan Wolverine. A photo of Gregory of Nin, a famous bishop. He's 28' tall but he looks so much taller due to the angle I took this photo. Rubbing his toe is supposed to bring you good luck! Diocletian's Palace and Peristil Square. This is the Oculus, a hole in the roof of the Imperial audience hall of Diocletian's Palace. Leaving Split later that day. It was an awesome stop on our Mediterranean cruise. 27 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the ancient ruins, beautiful scenery, food and weather are pretty nice too. 😉 Sandi @StLouisCruisersgreat photos! I agree, Croatia is so beautiful. 18 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobiemom Posted November 16, 2021 #82 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Had problems with the internet/Wi-Fi but I think I’m getting the hang of it. Took this pic of the Koningsdam while in the spa this morning. Now getting ready for a quick visit in Cabo, just need to wait for all the shorex and early bird folks so I can get a tender. 22 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JazzyV Posted November 16, 2021 #84 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Good afternoon Dailyites. Good days. A salute to Entrepreneurs. I may have an old stuffed bear to party with, lol. Tolerance is sadly missing these days it seems, in so many people. Great quote and quite true. I like the meal, but since I've had chicken the last 2 days, not tonight. The drink looks good, although I'm not too familiar with drinks with gin and how they taste. The wine sounds good too. I haven't been to today's port. Thanks for the pictures. Prayers to those out west in the US and in western Canada who are experiencing flooding. @rafinmd Oh no, sorry to hear you're in the hospital. Hopefully a short stay. Prayers. @RSWBADGER @NCTribeFan Bon Voyage! @*Miss G* Happy Anniversary! 🍾 @grapau27 Prayers for tomorrow. @lindaler Safe travels. Prayers for all that need them and cheers to those with something to celebrate. Stay safe evertibe, 21 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very careful and actually the cats I've petted (and the ones in these photos) are obviously well cared for by the towns people. Some belong to shop owners too. But you're right, we do have to be careful. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

highland cruiser Posted November 16, 2021 #93 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I haven't been on for a while. Missed all the news. Not sure where my time has been spent other than with the grands and getting presents to be sent to the Colorado families for Christmas. Almost done. Prayers to you Roy. Hopefully the situation can be taken care of quickly. Graham, will be thinking about you also for your derm appointment tomorrow. Our cruise in Sept. didn't go to Split but several other Croatian ports and all were wonderful. A delightful country and very friendly people. Cheers to all on the celebration list and prayers to those on the care list. Stay safe and well everyone. Cases seem to be on the rise. We are still vigilant about mask wearing. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SusieKIslandGirl Posted November 16, 2021 #97 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Finally getting caught up with the time changes after getting off the Eurodam Sunday. But then another 3 hour change when we head home from our son's house near Atlanta. Not looking forward to the wild PNW weather after a wonderful Atlantic crossing. Wearing masks became such a habit I'd forget to take it off when I got back to our cabin. Menus could use some help but still a great cruise. It was interesting that we didn't have to show our Covid test results going through Customs. I guess the ship wouldn't have let us off if we weren't negative. Stay well everyone. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare kazu Posted November 16, 2021 #98 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Just a quick update on Roy: He is going to be in hospital overnight at least. They found some fluid in the place I won’t mention and he is on antibiotics - they are doing testing and may drain the fluid. He just got moved out of the ER and is in a regular room, thankfully. In accordance with his wishes I will do my best to update the care & celebration list tomorrow. I don’t have his rotation list so forgive what gets missed. I have an early appointment tomorrow but will do my best to get it done before I go. 11 22 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atexsix Posted November 16, 2021 #99 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Late to the party today. Not much is happening other than getting Dad ready for a trip to Oregon so he can celebrate Thanksgiving with a friend, a reschedule from last year when it needed to be cancelled at the last minute. Speaking of last year it was one year ago today I had my stroke, it doesn't seem that long, maybe because we remember those type of events like it were yesterday. We're having beautiful mid-autumn weather, the leaves are mostly off the trees and we're enjoying sunshine after weeks of heavy rain, although the worst of the last two storms seemed to miss us. We're cruise shopping again for Alaska, Dad expressed an interest in returning to Skagway, I asked him if he could stand another Alaska itinerary and he seemed okay with it. But it's all going to depend on the testing hoops we have to jump through, not sure we want to do it all again. Hope you all are doing well. Prayers and thoughts of course! ~Bruno 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
